 From a Woman's Perspective March 14, 2010
Yolanda Y. Burl (Hopkins, SC)
I have to take in account the mind-set of women in 70's; but the way Linda Caldwell Lee is telling her version of life with Bruce Lee numerous times over in my opinion is oppressed and subservient, and she seems to embellish that role in his life, and the excuses that was made to spare his ego and state of mind is a hard pill for me to swallow. Given what has been written and reported on, shall I say the "Dark side" of Bruce Lee, she endured it by choice and has profited quite handsomely for the pass 37 years
 Great book July 13, 2009

This is a great biography. This is a must read for all fans of Bruce Lee. Linda pulls no punches, is completely honest, and very thorough in her tale of her husband.

This is the best biography I've read about Lee. Bruce Lee's wife captures the intensity of this very gifted man. He was truly incredible. I thought this might be a "gloss over" because she is writing about her husband, but she chose to tell the good, the bad, and the ugly. After finishing this very fast read, you will have a much better, balanced picture of an extraordinarly talented martial artist. Lee was a perfectionist bordering on fanaticism. He was born with several gifts that enhanced his performance: superior reflexes, extended reach, etc. He took the best from many different fighting styles and combined them into a martial philosophy that was ahead of it's time. Lee hated the "style trap" so many martial artists fall into. "Use what works, discard the rest." So said Bruce Lee.

Super book by Linda Lee about Bruce Lee's Life! I gave a book report in my grammer class in 1973 and then shortly after that I began my own Martial arts training. Buying books and magazines and learning everything about his martial art called called Jeet Kune Do: The Way of the Intercepting Fist!
